As you know, after many years' treatment of prolia, AFF or ONJ could occur although incidences are very rare. You don't have either but if you are planning major dental work while dealing prolia withdrawal at the same time, you most certainly need a bisphosphonate to deal with the potential rebound effect from prolia withdrawal (to prevent potential VCFs); also likely you'd need either tymlos or forteo to help building/healing of jaw bones from oral graphs.
Here is a previous thread in which many members discussed a similar case of prolia withdrawal with the presence of AFF:
